Khrushchev introduced the <a href="/wiki/De-Stalinisation" class="mw-redirect" title="De-Stalinisation">de-Stalinisation</a> of the party and of the Soviet Union. He realised this with the dismantling of the Gulag archipelago of forced-labour camps and freeing the prisoners as well as allowing Soviet civil society greater political freedom of expression, especially for public intellectuals of the <a href="/wiki/Intelligentsia" title="Intelligentsia">intelligentsia</a> such as the novelist <a href="/wiki/Aleksandr_Solzhenitsyn" title="Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn">Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn</a>, whose literature obliquely criticised Stalin and the Stalinist <a href="/wiki/Police_state" title="Police state">police state</a>.

Republic of China because Soviet and Russian interpretations and applications of Leninism and orthodox Marxism contradicted the Sinified Marxism–Leninism of Mao Zedong—his Chinese adaptations of Stalinist interpretation and praxis for establishing socialism in China. To realise that leap of Marxist faith in the development of Chinese socialism, the Chinese Communist Party developed <a href="/wiki/Maoism" title="Maoism">Maoism</a> as the official state ideology. As the specifically Chinese development of Marxism–Leninism, Maoism illuminated the cultural differences between the European-Russian and the Asian-Chinese interpretations and practical applications of Marxism–Leninism in each country. The political differences then provoked geopolitical, ideological and nationalist tensions, which derived from the different stages of development, between the urban society of the industrialised Soviet Union and the agricultural society of the pre-industrial China. The theory versus praxis arguments escalated to theoretic disputes about Marxist–Leninist revisionism and provoked the <a href="/wiki/Sino-Soviet_split" title="Sino-Soviet split">Sino-Soviet split</a> (1956–1966) and the two countries broke their international relations (diplomatic, political, cultural and economic).<sup id="cite_ref-World_History_2000._p._769_44-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-World_History_2000._p._769-44"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>44<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> China's <a href="/wiki/Great_Leap_Forward" title="Great Leap Forward">Great Leap Forward</a>, an idealistic massive reform project, resulted in <a href="/wiki/Great_Chinese_Famine" title="Great Chinese Famine">an estimated 15 to 55 million deaths</a> between 1959 and 1961, mostly from starvation.<sup id="cite_ref-nyt_143-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-nyt-143"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>143<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-144" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-144"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>144<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>In Eastern Asia, the Cold War produced the <a href="/wiki/Korean_War" title="Korean War">Korean War</a> (1950–1953), the first proxy war between the Eastern Bloc and the Western Bloc, resulted from dual origins, namely the nationalist Koreans' post-war resumption of their <a href="/wiki/Korean_Civil_War" class="mw-redirect" title="Korean Civil War">Korean Civil War</a> and the imperial war for regional hegemony sponsored by the United States and the Soviet Union.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEKohn2007291–292_145-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKohn2007291–292-145"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>145<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> The international response to the North Korean invasion of South Korea was realised by the <a href="/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Council" title="United Nations Security Council">United Nations Security Council</a>, who voted for war despite the absent Soviet Union and authorised an international military expedition to intervene, expel the northern invaders from the south of Korea and restore the geopolitical <i>status quo ante</i> of the Soviet and American <a href="/wiki/Division_of_Korea" title="Division of Korea">division of Korea</a> at the 38th Parallel of global latitude.

On 25 December 1991, Gorbachev officially announced the dissolution of the Soviet Union, ending the existence of the world's first Marxist–Leninist-led state. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Post-Cold_War_era_(1991–present)"><span id="Post-Cold_War_era_.281991.E2.80.93present.29"></span>Post-Cold War era (1991–present)</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Marxism%E2%80%93Leninism&amp;action=edit&amp;section=13" title="Edit section: Post-Cold War era (1991–present)"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Map_of_Marxist%E2%80%93Leninist_states.png" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5f/Map_of_Marxist%E2%80%93Leninist_states.png/300px-Map_of_Marxist%E2%80%93Leninist_states.png" decoding="async" width="300" height="132" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5f/Map_of_Marxist%E2%80%93Leninist_states.png/450px-Map_of_Marxist%E2%80%93Leninist_states.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/5f/Map_of_Marxist%E2%80%93Leninist_states.png/600px-Map_of_Marxist%E2%80%93Leninist_states.png 2x" data-file-width="1425" data-file-height="625" /></a><figcaption>Map of current and former Communist states, most of which followed, as party or state–party ideology, or were inspired by Marxist–Leninist ideology and development: <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r981673959">.mw-parser-output .legend{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}.mw-parser-output .legend-color{display:inline-block;min-width:1.25em;height:1.25em;line-height:1.25;margin:1px 0;text-align:center;border:1px solid black;background-color:transparent;color:black}.mw-parser-output .legend-text{}</style><div class="legend"><span class="legend-color mw-no-invert" style="background-color:#8B2D2D; color:white;">&#160;</span>&#160;Current</div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r981673959"><div class="legend"><span class="legend-color mw-no-invert" style="background-color:#FF5253; color:black;">&#160;</span>&#160;Former</div></figcaption></figure> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Xi_Jinping_at_the_APEC_summit_(2022).jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/Xi_Jinping_at_the_APEC_summit_%282022%29.jpg/220px-Xi_Jinping_at_the_APEC_summit_%282022%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="309" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/Xi_Jinping_at_the_APEC_summit_%282022%29.jpg/330px-Xi_Jinping_at_the_APEC_summit_%282022%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/34/Xi_Jinping_at_the_APEC_summit_%282022%29.jpg/440px-Xi_Jinping_at_the_APEC_summit_%282022%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="632" data-file-height="888" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Xi_Jinping" title="Xi Jinping">Xi Jinping</a>, President of <a href="/wiki/China" title="China">China</a></figcaption></figure> <p>Since the fall of the Eastern European Marxist–Leninist regimes, the Soviet Union and a variety of African Marxist–Leninist regimes in 1991, only a few Marxist–Leninist parties remained in power.

According to Ion Marandici, a Moldovan political scientist, the Party of Communists differs from those in other countries because it managed to appeal to the ethnic minorities and the anti-Romanian Moldovans. After tracing the adaptation strategy of the party, he found confirming evidence for five of the factors contributing to its electoral success, already mentioned in the theoretical literature on former Marxist–Leninist parties, namely the economic situation, the weakness of the opponents, the electoral laws, the fragmentation of the political spectrum and the legacy of the old regime. However, Marandici identified seven additional explanatory factors at work in the Moldovan case, namely the foreign support for certain political parties, separatism, the appeal to the ethnic minorities, the alliance-building capacity, the reliance on the Soviet notion of the Moldovan identity, the state-building process and the control over a significant portion of the media. It is due to these seven additional factors that the party managed to consolidate and expand its constituency.

The basics of Marxism-Leninism were in place by the time of Lenin's death in 1924. ... The revolution was to be accomplished in two stages. First, a 'dictatorship of the proletariat,' managed by the élite 'vanguard' communist party, would suppress counterrevolution, and ensure that natural economic resources and the means of production and distribution were in common ownership.

Before the mid-1980s, the communist party controlled the military, police, mass media, and state enterprises. Government coercive agencies employed physical sanctions against political dissidents who denounced Marxism-Leninism."; <a href="#CITEREFEvans1993">Evans 1993</a>, p.&#160;24: "Lenin defended the dictatorial organization of the workers' state. Several years before the revolution, he had bluntly characterized dictatorship as 'unlimited power based on force, and not on law', leaving no doubt that those terms were intended to apply to the dictatorship of the proletariat. ... To socialists who accused the Bolshevik state of violating the principles of democracy by forcibly suppressing opposition, he replied: you are taking a formal, abstract view of democracy. ...

There was of course an assumption that the leader was critical to the workings of totalitarianism: at the apex of a monolithic, centralised, and hierarchical system, it was he who issued the orders which were fulfilled unquestioningly by his subordinates.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&amp;rft.genre=bookitem&amp;rft.atitle=Joseph+Stalin%3A+Power+and+Ideas&amp;rft.btitle=Stalin%3A+A+New+History&amp;rft.pages=3-4&amp;rft.pub=Cambridge+University+Press&amp;rft.date=2005-09-08&amp;rft.isbn=978-1-139-44663-1&amp;rft.aulast=Davies&amp;rft.aufirst=Sarah&amp;rft.au=Harris%2C+James&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AMarxism%E2%80%93Leninism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-DaviesHarris2005-69"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-DaviesHarris2005_69-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-DaviesHarris2005_69-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFDaviesHarris2005" class="citation book cs1"><a href="/wiki/Sarah_Davies_(historian)" title="Sarah Davies (historian)">Davies, Sarah</a>; Harris, James (8 September 2005).

In his <i>Origins of the Great Purges</i>, Arch Getty argued that the Soviet political system was chaotic, that institutions often escaped the control of the centre, and that Stalin's leadership consisted to a considerable extent in responding, on an ad hoc basis, to political crises as they arose.

We all know that the traditional paradigm no longer satisfies, despite several efforts, primarily in the early 1960s (the directed society, totalitarianism without terror, the mobilization system) to articulate an acceptable variant. We have come to realize that models which were, in effect, offshoots of totalitarian models do not provide good approximations of post-Stalinist reality.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=Slavic+Review&amp;rft.atitle=Review%3A+How+the+Soviet+Union+is+Governed&amp;rft.volume=39&amp;rft.issue=3&amp;rft.pages=482-486&amp;rft.date=1980-09&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.2307%2F2497167&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jstor.org%2Fstable%2F2497167%23id-name%3DJSTOR&amp;rft.aulast=Zimmerman&amp;rft.aufirst=William&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AMarxism%E2%80%93Leninism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-Ghodsee_2014-73"><span class="mw-cite-backlink">^ <a href="#cite_ref-Ghodsee_2014_73-0"><sup><i><b>a</b></i></sup></a> <a href="#cite_ref-Ghodsee_2014_73-1"><sup><i><b>b</b></i></sup></a></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFGhodsee2014" class="citation journal cs1"><a href="/wiki/Kristen_Ghodsee" title="Kristen Ghodsee">Ghodsee, Kristen</a> (Fall 2014). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/kristenghodsee/files/history_of_the_present_galleys.pdf">"A Tale of 'Two Totalitarianisms': The Crisis of Capitalism and the Historical Memory of Communism"</a> <span class="cs1-format">(PDF)</span>. <i>History of the Present: A Journal of Critical History</i>. <b>4</b> (2): 115–142. <a href="/wiki/Doi_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="Doi (identifier)">doi</a>:<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://doi.org/10.5406%2Fhistorypresent.4.2.0115">10.5406/historypresent.4.2.0115</a>. <a href="/wiki/JSTOR_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="JSTOR (identifier)">JSTOR</a>&#160;<a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.jstor.org/stable/10.5406/historypresent.4.2.0115">10.5406/historypresent.4.2.0115</a>. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20211031180121/https://scholar.harvard.edu/files/kristenghodsee/files/history_of_the_present_galleys.pdf">Archived</a> <span class="cs1-format">(PDF)</span> from the original on 31 October 2021.</cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Ajournal&amp;rft.genre=article&amp;rft.jtitle=History+of+the+Present%3A+A+Journal+of+Critical+History&amp;rft.atitle=A+Tale+of+%27Two+Totalitarianisms%27%3A+The+Crisis+of+Capitalism+and+the+Historical+Memory+of+Communism&amp;rft.ssn=fall&amp;rft.volume=4&amp;rft.issue=2&amp;rft.pages=115-142&amp;rft.date=2014&amp;rft_id=info%3Adoi%2F10.5406%2Fhistorypresent.4.2.0115&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jstor.org%2Fstable%2F10.5406%2Fhistorypresent.4.2.0115%23id-name%3DJSTOR&amp;rft.aulast=Ghodsee&amp;rft.aufirst=Kristen&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fscholar.harvard.edu%2Ffiles%2Fkristenghodsee%2Ffiles%2Fhistory_of_the_present_galleys.pdf&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AMarxism%E2%80%93Leninism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-74"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-74">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFNeumayer2018" class="citation book cs1"><a href="/wiki/Laure_Neumayer" title="Laure Neumayer">Neumayer, Laure</a> (2018). <i>The Criminalisation of Communism in the European Political Space after the Cold War</i>.

Some scholars point to Stalin as the mastermind behind the famine, due to his hatred of Ukrainians (Hosking, 1987). Others assert that Stalin did not actively cause the famine, but he knew about it and did nothing to stop it (Moore, 2012). Still other scholars argue that the famine was just an effect of the Soviet Union's push for rapid industrialization and a by-product of that was the destruction of the peasant way of life (Fischer, 1935). The final school of thought argues that the Holodomor was caused by factors beyond the control of the Soviet Union and Stalin took measures to reduce the effects of the famine on the Ukrainian people (Davies &amp; Wheatcroft, 2006).</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&amp;rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Adissertation&amp;rft.title=The+Holodomor%3A+Genocide+and+National+Identity&amp;rft.inst=The+College+at+Brockport%3A+State+University+of+New+York&amp;rft.date=2013-12-20&amp;rft.aulast=Sawicky&amp;rft.aufirst=Nicholas+D.&amp;rft_id=https%3A%2F%2Fdigitalcommons.brockport.edu%2Fcgi%2Fviewcontent.cgi%3Farticle%3D1318%26context%3Dehd_theses&amp;rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3AMarxism%E2%80%93Leninism" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTEPonsService201086-216"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEPonsService201086_216-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFPonsService2010">Pons &amp; Service 2010</a>, p.&#160;86.</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-217"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-217">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFSen1999" class="citation book cs1"><a href="/wiki/Amartya_Sen" title="Amartya Sen">Sen, Amartya Kumar</a> (1999). <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://books.google.com/books?id=Qm8HtpFHYecC"><i>Development as freedom</i></a>. <a href="/wiki/Oxford_University_Press" title="Oxford University Press">Oxford University Press</a>. <a href="/wiki/ISBN_(identifier)" class="mw-redirect" title="ISBN (identifier)">ISBN</a>&#160;<a href="/wiki/Special:BookSources/978-0-19-289330-7" title="Special:BookSources/978-0-19-289330-7"><bdi>978-0-19-289330-7</bdi></a>. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140103042841/http://books.google.com/books?id=Qm8HtpFHYecC">Archived</a> from the original on 3 January 2014<span class="reference-accessdate">.

"There remains another theory of Marxism's evil ideological influence that has come into vogue in recent years. This is the argument advanced by the American Catholic political philosopher Eric Voegelin, among others, that the commitment of Marxists to a political belief at one and the same time both deterministic and utopian was a form of "gnosticism," a heresy of hubris, leading them inexorably to the monumental crimes of Stalinism. In this view, the Marxian vision dictated the Stalinist outcome not because the communist utopia was inevitable but because it was impossible."</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTEDaniels2007200-221"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTEDaniels2007200_221-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFDaniels2007">Daniels 2007</a>, p.&#160;200. "When the full record is considered, it makes little sense to try to understand Stalinism either as the victorious implementation of Marxism or as the pure fury of fanatics who cannot achieve their imagined goal. Stalinism meant the substantive abandonment of the Marxian program and the pragmatic acceptance of postrevolutionary Russian reality, while the power of the dictatorship was used to reinterpret and enforce Marxist doctrine as a tool of propaganda and legitimation. No genuine ideological imperative remained. Marxism could be made to appear to justify Stalinism, but it was no longer allowed to serve either as a policy directive or an explanation of reality."</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-FOOTNOTERee199723-222"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-FOOTNOTERee199723_222-0">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><a href="#CITEREFRee1997">Ree 1997</a>, p.&#160;23. "This article concerns the research done by the author in Stalin's private library.

The choice of books and the notes support the thesis that, despite his historical interest and his identification with some of the tsars as powerful rulers, Stalin always continued to consider himself a Marxist, and that he was uninterested in other systems of thought, including those of traditional Russia."</span> </li> <li id="cite_note-223"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-223">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFGill1998" class="citation book cs1">Gill, Graeme J.
